    We use Sainsbury's Basics White sliced, it seems to last *longer* than own brand or Hovis-branded-type bread (not by much admittedly, but still). 40p a loaf - not thick slice, but fine for toast, and the odd sandwich :)
    Do not feed the trolls please.

    I keep my bread in the fridge so they last longer... not bought value in a while (buy Aldi 45p bread/reduced bread) - and they are fine for at least a week over bb date, even the "whoopsie" ones!

    I now only buy whoopsie bread - stock up in the freezer and get the warbutons that we love!

  • I like Aldi for the cheap white bread. I think it about 45p, but have just started buying sainsburys basic wholemeal. Very nice.

  • I get mine from Farmfoods, on a long term offer, any 2 Kingsmill loaves for £1.50 I get the Tasty Wholemeal Medium Sliced. I like Sainsburys value white loaf but can't find a better tasting wholemeal for cheaper.

    We make our own - usually wholemeal and white combi woth added seeds and it is gorgeous, healthier and cheaper too. Highly recommend it as it contains LOADS less salt than shop bought bread.
